A brilliant thing happened this morning; I got to the office building only to find everyone locked out from our floors. Apparently there was a burst water pipe on the 32nd floor and water was seeping into the floors below which posed an electrical hazard.
I waited around the lobby and talked shit with some colleagues while building management allowed small groups of us to use the goods lift under supervision of a safety warden to go to our floors to collect any valuables. The 27th floor where I worked looked fine except for the desks near the windows where water was raining down from the ceiling boards. Too bad I didn't bring my camera today to take some snaps.
I retrieved my laptop and am now working remotely from a couch facing the window with an awesome view from the Accenture offices below. Its amazing what you can do with wireless networking and remote access passes. =)
Remember back in this post I was bitching about the stupid names that IT people give their systems? Apparently FROG did stand for something: Feedback Register for Organisational Growth. Yep, of course it sounds perfectly logical......
The funny thing was that nobody on our project knew what it stood for the last 7 months.
